I don't understand where is the problem, you are now on ICS, you can't just flash some .62 zip via CWM. By doing that you will only(most likely) replace system partition, other stuff like kernel, baseband, data will be left from ICS.
ThilinaC told you to do a full flash first. Meaning, first flash some GB ftf, then root, then CWM, and then you can flash that zip in CWM.

hm, my advise:
flash .42 ftf, root, CWM, flash that zip you linked, and then flash stock .62 kernel(you can flash stock even on locked BL, of course if you don't have SIM-lock, meaning if your fastboot is enabled)
or you can check this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468866
and get .62 via OTA update, after flashing .42.

True... old firmware though. And no battery improvement.
.42 or .62 are both fine. We have 2 Neos, one on stock .42 and one on stock .62 without issues.
Only get battery issues with alternative kernels... including my own compile!!

If you have ftf file, simply flash it with flashtool, and untick wipe cache and user data, and tick exclude baseband, exclude system, then flash.
Or if you want i can upload it for you.

You don't need to reflash the kernel. You use recoveryNeo.img which is for Hot Boot only. It BOOTS in to CWM ONCE. You then use rootxperia.zip via CWM and the next time you boot everything is stock + root.
I did explain this earlier....

There shouldnt be a problem running an ICS custom ROM on Stock ROM. Could be your file is corrupt. Try downloading it again and flashing it again properly. I dont know what's the problem exactly.

If you have done a Data wipe then all your apps are gone. You can install another Gingerbread ROM and try to see your apps.

I'm currently in stock rom, .54 version and I like to install Ultimate Sola v2. Do I need to flash .54 first because I got some mods currently installed like AC!D Mod and stuff like that or I can install Ultimate Sola directly?

Well, if only I can post in the thread I would. But I don't have enough posts to post in android development threads. Thanks by the way.
Sorry I forgot about the 10 posts rule Anyway, read the thread :
1. Install latest official ICS from Sony via flashtool.. any version of .54 u like... doesnt matter if its indian or global or italian. if ur already in ICS official .54 then avoid the step....
2. FLASH CWM V5 for unlocked bootloaders... dont use any other... u wont be able to boot then.. and for locked bootloaders use the CWM is available for locked BL stock rom. no need if u have one...
3. Install rom via CWM
4. let it boot.
5. reboot and after boot do a factory data reset in settings. be sure to tick erase internal storage option
6. let it boot then go to quick panel settings. Go to Widget button and UNCHECK EVERYTHING. this step is important. otherwise system ui wont work.
7.Then go to solid explorer. Press back two times. u will enter SYSTM ROOT FOLDER. CLICK SYSTEM folder . Go to app folder. Find Quickpanelsettings.apk and rename it to quickpanelsettings.bak (or whatever u wish.. make sure it doesnt have .apk at the end..)
8. reboot and enjoy.......

Try this
Download and intall flashtool from this page.
http://androxyde.github.io/
then install the drivers in the drivers folder where you installed it.
then place this file (kernel) in the firmware folder.
View attachment MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL.rar
then open flashtool and click on the lightning bolt icon. Then use flashmode and flash the kernel.
and everything will be normal again.
Always remember to follow instructions to the letter if you don't wan't to brick your device in the future.
